This poster was created for the 2003 Festival de Teatro de Títeres, an event celebrating Puerto Rico’s puppetry arts, children’s theater traditions, and contributions to community education. The festival paid special tribute to Victoria Espinosa, one of Puerto Rico’s pioneering theater directors and a foundational figure in modern stage production. Organized by the Instituto de Cultura Puertorriqueña, the festival highlighted puppet theater as a vital cultural practice blending folk storytelling, visual creativity, and performance art.
Luis Alonso’s design features a stylized, exaggerated puppet head, rendered in bold flat colors reminiscent of modern Caribbean pop aesthetics. The composition captures the playful yet expressive nature of Puerto Rican puppet theater, honoring its roots in oral tradition and its evolution into an established cultural form. Posters like this one helped cement the importance of graphic design in documenting and elevating performing arts communities across the island.
